Former U.S. national team and Real Salt Lake forward Robbie Findley appears to be headed back to MLS following the Monday confirmation that his contract with England’s Nottingham Forest has been “cancelled by mutual consent.”

Findley, 27, started just 10 league games for Forest during what the club called “an injury-disrupted two-year spell.” He signed with the second-tier outfit in December 2010, six months after starting three matches at the World Cup.

RSL made Findley available in the 2010 MLS expansion draft but reportedly has recently reacquired his rights from the Portland Timbers. Soccer By Ives claimed Monday that RSL sent the Timbers $75,000 in allocation money and already has a new contract worked out with the Arizona native.

Findley tallied 35 MLS goals in four seasons, nearly all of which was spent in Salt Lake. His finest hour came during the ‘09 playoffs, when he scored three goals in four games as RSL claimed the MLS Cup title.

RSL has room up top following last month’s trade of Fabián Espíndola to the New York Red Bulls.
